Borland C++ and Expat - performance hit.

Hello,

I've been testing an application that uses EXPAT on a clean install of
Windows XP. It was working perfectly well, and EXPAT in particular was
extremely fast. After I loaded Borland C++ Builder 5 onto the system the
performance of EXPAT was greatly reduced.

I've now un-installed C++ Builder, but the performance of EXPAT has not
returned to what it originally was.

I think it's fairly obvious that C++ Builder has replaced a system library
module with a debug version or something like that.

Before I start digging to find out which libraries are involved I though I
would ask in this list whether anybody has already figured this out.

Has anybody tackled this problem?
